MFT Teasers....day 5

So, how long is your list??? Long and big, I'm sure. Well, I hate to say it (who am I kidding...no I'm not. LOL!) but your list is about to get longer. We still have a few more days left to tempt and tease you with. Today is our à la mode day. I love them! Here are the details about the upcoming release on September 6 at 10 PM EST:

The MFT release is on September 6 at 10 PM EST. You can attend the release party from 8-10 PM EST here in the forum for fun, games, and prizes! All the new sets and dies will be available September 6 at 10 PM EST.

The guest designer contest is ON! Check out the forum for details on how YOU can win over $100 in stamp sets and play along with the DT for a month.

If you'd like to see all the teasers for today, please click on over to Kim's blog NOW! Be sure to leave comments as you go for a chance to win one of 2 $10 vouchers being given away daily, just for leaving a comment. :) Starting this month, you’ll have all week to comment on each of the posts – all the winners will be posted on Tuesday, September 6th around 7:30pm. Be sure to check the MFT Blog to see if perhaps YOU were one of our lucky FOURTEEN winners! Remember to leave a method of contact in your comments, because if you’re selected as a prize winner, but we can’t reach you, then we can’t get you your prize!.

Don't you love that we are stretching out the teaser post days a bit. It gives each of the new sets an extra bit of time to let them shine before release day. I love that these gals have a day all to themselves! This month the two à la modes are called: Blue Without You, and Talk Nerdy to Me. I've got one of each to show off today. First up, my blue card. I just had to reach for my beautiful Authentique blue paper pad.
A simple layout, but I really wanted to who off the sweet, saluting girl. I thought the dog tag die-namic was a perfect fit for this hero card.

I cut a piece of saraha sand cardstock and then used the direct to paper technique with my silver encore ink pad....I dig the metallic look it gives the tag. I stamped the sentiment right on top. I tied it up with some stone twine. Check out that twine.....YES!!! new colors of twine are in stock. Be sure to add 1 or 4 to your cart on Tuesday night. Then I carried over some of the same design elements to the inside of my card, and used another sentiment. I added a row of the star border die-namic.

Moving on the the nerdy set (yes, I admit, I'm a bit of a nerdy gerdy at times....aren't we all? LOL!). I don't know what it is about this set, but I just adore it! I think it might have something to do with my obsession with office supplies and lined/ledger paper (this is new from SU). Whenever I get a chance I use it and I'm always drawn to it. I think the notebook edge die-namic is one of my most LOVED dies.

I was inspired by this past week's WSC sketch. I used the twine (here in lilac) the same way I did with my sample. I love that twine adds texture and pretty bows without all the bulk of a ribbon. I did the sentiment up on the new ticket tab (I've also been playing with my neglected ticket corner punch-how fun! I missed that one) and also used the pretty Prima Donna Petals again.

Hope you enjoyed todays peeks. More to come tomorrow. Kim's blog has the teaser line up. Stop on over there for all the details.
